How Axiros Enhanced Nox Telecom's Network Security with AX69
In today’s digital landscape, protecting networks from vulnerabilities is crucial. ISPs and telecommunications companies are constantly looking for innovative ways to shield their customers from evolving cyber threats. Since 2019 Axiros, a leader in device management solutions has been partnered with Nox Telecom and recently implemented an extension to the AX69 - All-in-One USP / TR-069 ACS Server. This new addition after 5 years of successful cooperation empowers Nox Telecom to monitor open ports on customer devices, a critical step in ensuring robust network security. Here’s a closer look at how this enhancement functions and the advantages it brings.

The Need for Open Port Evaluation
Open ports on customer devices can sometimes serve as entry points for unauthorized access, monitoring these ports and tracking changes is an essential part of proactive cybersecurity. However, conducting these scans manually is resource-intensive and may not always provide real-time insight. With automated port evaluation integrated into the device management platform, Nox Telecom can stay on top of network security without the manual overhead. With this new feature Nox Telecom can inform their customers proactively if new open ports are found, enhancing the security of the customer network.

Introducing the AX69 Extension
The AX69 setup by Axiros offers an advanced toolset for managing and securing customer devices. With the recent extension, Axiros has enhanced the system to detect new open ports automatically. Here’s how it works:

1. Automatic Port Detection: The AX69 platform scans customer devices periodically for open ports. By doing this at regular intervals, the system ensures that any new ports are detected as soon as they appear.

2. Real-Time Reporting: Any changes detected by the scan—like newly opened ports—are reported immediately back to Nox Telecom’s ticketing system. This enables quick action, allowing Nox’s team to assess potential vulnerabilities and close any unnecessary ports to secure customer networks.

3. Enhanced Integration with Ticketing System: Axiros designed this extension to integrate into Nox Telecom ’s existing ticketing system. When a new open port is detected, a ticket is automatically generated, categorizing and prioritizing each alert based on potential risk. This workflow automation helps streamline the issue resolution process.

How Nox Telecom Benefits from AX69’s Enhanced Security
The port evaluation extension serves as an early-warning system for Nox Telecom, allowing their team to proactively secure customer networks. Here are some notable benefits:

• Proactive Threat Detection: With continuous monitoring of open ports, Nox can identify potentially vulnerable entry points and resolve them before they become a security threat.

• Efficient Resource Allocation: Automating the scanning and reporting process reduces the workload for Nox Telecom’s team. Instead of manually scanning devices, team members can focus on more critical aspects of cybersecurity, knowing that AX69 will alert them to new risks.

• Improved Customer Trust: With proactive security measures in place, Nox Telecom can confidently assure customers that their networks are better protected against cyber threats.

A Future-Proof Approach to Network Security
As more devices become internet-connected, ISPs and telecom providers like Nox Telecom face growing challenges in securing customer networks. Axiros’ AX69 extension brings an added layer of defence against these threats, offering a solution that’s both scalable and efficient.

Through innovation and strategic collaboration, Axiros and Nox Telecom have set a new standard for network security, demonstrating that automation and proactive monitoring are essential to safeguarding customers in today’s connected world.

With the AX69 extension now fully implemented, Nox Telecom is better equipped to keep their customers safe, one open port at a time.
